Browsing markets

The Browse tab is where you scan for opportunities. Every market on Polymarket with active trading is displayed as a card in a responsive grid. Here’s what every element means and how to interact with it.

​
Anatomy of a market card

Each card packs a lot of information into a compact format:

​
Header section

ElementDescription
Market iconCategory-specific icon (politics, crypto, sports, etc.)
Question textThe market question, truncated to 2 lines. Full text visible in the detail panel.
AI Pick badgeAppears at the top center when the AI has a signal. Emerald = bullish (AI favors YES), Rose = bearish (AI favors NO), Gray = neutral.
Asset tagIf the market references a specific asset (e.g., “BTC”, “ETH”), shown as a small badge.
Timeframe tagIf the market has a known timeframe category.

​
Stats section

ElementDescription
Category badgesOne or more category labels (Politics, Crypto, Sports, etc.)
Trending tagOrange “Trending” or “Hot” badge if the market has above-average volume spikes.
VolumeTotal lifetime USDC traded in this market. Higher = more liquid, better price discovery.
24h VolumeUSDC traded in the last 24 hours. Shows how active the market is right now.
CountdownTime until resolution. Color-coded: Red = less than 1 hour, Amber = less than 24 hours, Gray = more than 24 hours. Ended markets show “Ended”.

​
Price section

ElementDescription
Probability barsTwo horizontal bars showing YES and NO percentages. Green for YES, red for NO. The wider the bar, the higher the probability.
Outcome buttonsTwo buttons — YES (green tint) and NO (red tint) — each showing the current price in cents. Clicking either opens the inline trading flow.
Bookmark iconClick to add/remove from your Watchlist. Filled = watched, outlined = not watched.

​
Card styling

The card’s left border color indicates the AI’s stance:
  • Green border — AI favors YES (bullish)
  • Red border — AI favors NO (bearish)
  • No special border — No AI signal or neutral
On hover, the card lifts slightly with a shadow. During active trading (when you’ve clicked an outcome button), the card gets an amber border with a pulse animation.

​
Inline trading flow

You can trade directly from any market card without opening the detail panel:
1

Click an outcome button

Click YES or NO on any card. The button highlights and an amount picker slides in below the card. Only one card can be in trading mode at a time — clicking another card closes the current one.
2

Select your amount

Quick presets: $1, $5, $10, $25, $50, $100. Or type a custom amount. The interface instantly shows:
  • Number of shares you’ll receive
  • Average price per share
  • Potential return if you’re right ($1 per share)
  • Potential profit (return minus cost)
3

Confirm the trade

A confirmation panel slides in showing the full trade summary. Click Confirm to execute. The trade hits Polymarket’s CLOB as a FAK (Fill-And-Kill) order.
4

Position created

Your position appears immediately in the Portfolio tab via optimistic updates — you don’t need to wait for the blockchain to confirm. The optimistic entry auto-cleans when the real position data arrives from Polymarket’s API.

​
Grid modes

Toggle between two views using the switch in the category sidebar:
Flat grid layout. Every market is its own card. 1 column on mobile, 2 on tablet, 3 on desktop. Best for scanning broadly and spotting new opportunities. This is the default.

​
Pagination

Markets load in pages of 50 using infinite scroll. As you scroll within 3 rows of the bottom, the next page loads automatically. The total market count is shown and updates as filters change. There is no “Load More” button — it’s seamless.
The most efficient workflow: filter by category, sort by volume or trending, scan the AI Pick badges for markets where the AI has a strong signal, and open the detail panel on anything interesting. Don’t trade from the card alone — always check the detail panel for orderbook depth, price chart, and War Room analysis before sizing up.
